This week I share our collective outrage and heartbreak over the shooting of the Texas schoolchildren and teachers, and manage to offer some hope that this time it will be different, that this shooting will heighten a social pain-point – unstable young men equipped with weapons of war – sufficiently to transcend political polarities. In this episode I ponder:
America’s enneatype, frontier culture, “traditionalism with guns”
Integrating the MSNBC and FOX News worldviews
Recognizing budding criminality
Matthew Yglesias’s positivity blowback
How about the first part of the second amendment?
The ever-widening circle of moral consideration
What our grandchildren will know
Blessings to all
